Naruto AD (Alternate Dimension)
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.
AN: Since some have requested it, this story is a little more serious as it will follow the main storyline to a certain degree. Of course that's not to say that it won't have it's fair share of over the top humor in it, because it will. In fact, this will have a little of everything in it. Humor, Adventure, Romance, stuff like that. Enjoy.
Chapter 1: Nightmares of the Past
Anko Mitarashi woke up in a cold sweat and was gasping for air as she sat up in her bed. She had another nightmare from her time on that island when she was working for…him. Her former sensei, the man she once admired, respected and even loved.
Orochimaru.
The purple haired Special Jonin remembered when she first found out about Orochimaru's twisted experiments and the poor souls he was conducting them on. Three of them were currently under the same roof as her.
Anko got up out of bed, put on a kimono and slippers and walked out of her room to check on the three girls who were like daughters to her in every aspect except blood. The first door she came to out in the hall had a sign on it that said 'Kin's Room – Check your sanity at the door.'
Anko had to grin at that as she opened the door. The walls of Kin's room were covered with both posters for heavy metal bands and pictures of girls who were known members of Sasuke Uchiha's Fan Club. The latter of which had several throwing weapon imbedded in them like macabre darts on dartboards. A huge stereo system was hooked up to several large speakers which were beside a couple of different types of guitars.
Standing out from the other guitars was a strange looking one that looked more like some kind of machine rather than a musical instrument. But Anko knew what it was. It was Kin's weapon of choice. A guitar that not only fired off blasts of sonic waves, but was also used as a melee weapon as it could be configured into a scythe or a spear.
Lying in her bed was Kin herself. She was dressed in a black tank top and violet panties that had black bats pattered on them. She was sleeping peacefully, but she wasn't under her covers. Anko pulled her blanket over her and kissed the ebony haired girl on her forehead before leaving to check on the others.
Next to Kin's room was Tayuya's room. The door had a picture of a skull with two flutes crossed in the background. Anko looked inside to see that the redhead's room was a little messy with some books and magazines on the floor. Like Kin, Tayuya was a collector of musical instruments, but she collected flutes instead of guitars. Fitting considering her abilities.
Also like Kin, there was one instrument that Tayuya favored over the others. It was a flute that appeared to be made of ivory with a dragon weaved around it. To anyone unfamiliar with the tempermental redhead, it looked like a really fancy flute, but those close to Tayuya knew better, for she endowed the flute with necromantic powers, a 'gift' Orochimaru gave the girl.
Tayuya was sound asleep in her bed with the covers pulled over her. Only her head and shoulders were visible. Anko could hear the redhead mumble something in her sleep. She couldn't be sure, but it sounded like she said "Rancid cunts. No one talks about my family like that."
Anko smiled as she gently kissed Tayuya on her forehead and she seemed to calm down.
Across from Tayuya's room and next to Anko's was Tenten's room, which had a few shuriken and kunai daggers stuck in the door. Tenten's room was probably the cleanest out of Anko's daughters. A place for everything and everything in it's place. There were a few posters on the walls, but they were generally overlooked due to the numerous weapons that were mounted on the walls.
There were several katanas of different sizes, spears, a set of metal claws that could be attached to someone's wrists and boots, a couple pairs of tonfa sticks and numerous other weapons that had a point or an edge.
Tenten was also asleep in her bed. Anko moved a few strand of Tenten's hair away from her face and just like her other daughters, kissed on the forehead and walked out, satisfied that her children were safe.
Still unable to sleep, Anko made her way towards the kitchen. Maybe there was something for her to fix so she could get back to sleep.
The sound of water running from the kitchen sink could be heard. Anko tensed for a moment, but relaxed upon recognizing the chakra signature.
"So you couldn't sleep either, eh Naruto?" Anko said as she entered the kitchen.
Pouring a glass of water was a young man in his mid teens. Even in the darkness, Anko could see his long golden blonde hair and the streaks of red in it. He turned towards Anko at the sound of her voice.
"Not really. Mouth was feeling a little dry." Naruto said, drinking the water he just poured. Anko looked at the boy as he drank, taking in his features. Most notably the blue eyes and the whisker-like marks on his cheeks. He was in decent shape. Not surprising considering the training program that was part of the Leaf Village Ninja Academy. Hell, if he was a few years older and she was a little younger, Anko would try to put the moves on the boy. But alas, it would not happen as the young man was already taken by her daughters. And Anko would never come between him and her daughters.
"You okay Anko?" Naruto asked.
Anko shook off her current line of thought to speak with him. "Yeah, just thinking about…things."
"Anything you wanna talk about?" The blonde asked.
"Not really." Anko replied. She didn't want Naruto or the girls to know what was troubling her because she didn't want them to worry needlessly.
Looking at Naruto, Anko couldn't help but think back on the day that she and her daughters met him and how he became part of their family.

Several years ago
A teenage Anko Mitarashi was walking down the street with her three 5-year old daughters in tow. The purple haired girl noticed the glares and ugly remarks being thrown towards her and the girls. Anko was a fairly thick-skinned individual, in more ways than one, but in this case, it meant that she didn't let the negativity from the villagers get to her. To be purely honest, she didn't give two shits and a rat's ass what people thought of her.
What pissed her off was the fact that they directing some of their more vicious insults towards the three girls walking with her.
"Oh look. It's the snake bitch and the little freaks."
"As if that little demon brat was bad enough, we have that traitorous slut and those three little monsters running around too."
"I don't know why the Hokage doesn't just let us just kill them. We don't need our children exposed to such filth."
Anko managed to keep a poker face, but she was ready to turn this area into one big morgue if the ignorant fucks didn't cool it with the insults. She then looked down at Tayuya, Tenten and Kin and felt her heart ache. The poor things looked absolutely miserable.
As Anko and the three little girls walked along, they didn't notice a couple of villagers hanging out in an alley. Their plan was simple: jump out of hiding while wearing masks to put a scare into the little brats while getting a good laugh at their expense. So when Anko and the girls were about to pass by, the villagers executed their cruel joke, getting the response they were hoping for from the girls…
…except they were not anticipating one thing:
Kin's reaction
For you see, Orochimaru's experiments on Kin have resulted in the black haired girl possessing superhuman vocal cords, which could amplify the volume of Kin's voice to supersonic levels. So, when Kin screamed in terror from the idiot villagers looking to scare the little ones for some cheap laughs, it was so loud and so powerful that it sent the fools flying into the wall of a building, not to mention shattering every window in the area.
Anko quickly turned around to the three scared girls and tried calm them down. Kin looked like she was the worst for wear as she saw what she accidently did. She looked at Anko with tears in her eyes.
"I'm sorry, mama. I'm so sorry." Kin said before she began to weep. Anko wrapped her arms around the terrified little girl and whispered to her.
"It's okay my little one. It's okay. I'm here."
However, when Anko could sense open hostility in the air, she turned to see that all activity in the area had stopped. Everyone looked at the purple haired girl and the three scared girls holding onto her as if she were her lifeline.
"Did you see that? That little freak assaulted those people and almost destroyed the market!"
"Screw what the Hokage says. Those monsters are a menace! Even more than the fox brat!"
"KILL THEM!"
In a heartbeat, Anko put Kin on her back and grabbed Tayuya and Tenten.
"Hang on tight you three." Anko said before taking off down another alley with a mob of angry self righteous villagers right behind them. Anko spared a looked behind them to see that some shinobi have also given chase. Chunin and Genin mostly and thankfully no Jonin.
After about fifteen minutes of running, Anko stopped upon reaching a dead end. Before she could turn back, a kunai dagger flew past Anko's head and got embedded in the wall. Anko turned to see that the villagers and the ninjas had them cornered.
"No where left for you or those freaks to run, bitch." One of the ninjas sneered. Anko gently let the three girls down and then got in front of them. Kin, Tayuya and Tenten then hid behind Anko's legs, shaking with fear.
"Why are you being so mean to us?" Little Tenten cried. "What did we do to you?"
"Just leave us alone, you meanies!" Tayuya shouted, trying not to let her fear show, but was doing a very unconvincing job.
Kin was so scared, she couldn't speak, but her young mind was in turmoil. It was because of her that she, her sisters and her mother were being chased and now it looked like the mean people were going to hurt them. "If those scary people didn't scare me, we wouldn't be in this mess." Kin looked at the angry mob and felt great anger at them. "Stupid people. I hate them. I hate them all!"
Anko assumed a defensive Taijutsu stance. "Tayuya, Tenten, Kin, listen carefully. While I distract them, you three run and find a place to hide. I will find you soon."
"But mama-" Tenten began.
"Don't argue with me, just do it!" Anko said as she got ready. The people in the mob looked amused. "Let's get rid of these pieces of trash." One of them said.
"LEAVE THEM ALONE!" came a young, but angry voice from above. Everyone, including Anko and the girls, looked up in time to see a shadowy figure coming down from a roof and landing in between the mob and the girls.
Anko blinked to see that it was a small boy with messy blonde who was wearing ratty looking clothes probably fished out of a dumpster. From what Anko could tell, he was probably the same age as her daughters and even though she never seen him before, Anko knew who this boy was. The whisker marks on his cheeks were a bit of a dead giveaway.
"It's that kid who has the Ninetails sealed inside him. But what's he doing here? And what can he do?" Anko thought as the boy turned to face the villagers.
The initial shock from the boy's entrance wore off as far as the villagers went as their malicious facial expressions returned. A few snickers could be heard.
"Well, well. Look who's come to join the party."
"Looks like it's our lucky day, boys. Not only do we get to get to kill the snake bitch and those freaks of hers, but we get to take out the demon too."
The blonde boy just stood there, facing the villagers. He turned his head to look at Anko and her daughters. "You and those girls may want to get behind something, lady." He told Anko.
Before Anko could ask, she noticed that a reddish orange aura began to surround the boy. Even she could sense some kind of powerful force coming from the blonde. The three girls just looked on, their eyes wide with curiosity and wonder. Anko quickly grabbed them and ducked behind a dumpster that was in the alley. She held her daughters close as she could feel intense heat and hear screams of fear and pain.
The screams continued for a few moments before it was quiet again. The heat Anko felt was also gone. The purple haired girl poked her head out from behind the dumpster to see that the Ninetails' vessel was standing with his back to her. The rest of the alley in front of the boy looked scorched.
Anko could hear the labored breathing coming from the boy as he turned around to face her. "Are you all okay?" He asked. By this time, Kin, Tayuya and Tenten poked their heads out to see. They all nodded their heads to answer the boy's question.
"Good. I'm glad." That was all he said before he fell to the ground.
0000000000000000000000
"What are you thinking about, Anko-Sensei?"
Anko came out of her thoughts and was back in the present. She smiled as she looked at the boy who saved them all those years ago.
"I was just thinking back to we first met you…and how you fried those fucks." Anko said with a smile.
Naruto grinned. "Yeah. Seems just like yesterday, doesn't it?" He then yawned while covering his mouth. "Well, I'm heading back to bed. Night Anko-Sensei."
"Hey wait." Anko said, stopping the blonde. "One last thing." She then kissed Naruto on his forehead. "It helps the girls sleep, so no reason not to think that it won't work for you."
Naruto smiled. "Thanks…and good night." With that, the Ninetails' vessel made his way towards his room.
"Night, kid." Anko said, starting to feel sleepy herself as she made her way back to her room.
On the way, Anko looked back on how Naruto affected her and her daughters. Before he came along, poor Kin would never talk out of fear that simply talking would destroy something. But thanks to Naruto, the raven haired girl was like a chatterbox. Tayuya and Tenten wouldn't be as confident in her abilities as they were without the boy and they were happy that he accepted them and he was happy that they accepted him. Because really, that was what they all wanted: acceptance.
Too bad a vast majority of those fools in the village were not the accepting type, unless, of course, they were accepting a bribe. But that was alright. Eventually, they would learn to accept something new…
…Pain…and a lot of it for all the hell that those fools put her, her daughters and Naruto through.
AN: Wow. That's all I can say. Wow. I'm glad you all like the stories that I have written. Thank you everyone for reading them and thank you for the feedback.
For those of you who need some info on this particular series, check out my bio page. But here is a description of the abilities that Anko, Naruto, Kin, Tenten and Tayuya have
Anko: Basically Anko's abilities are the same as the anime, but instead of snakes, she uses dragons. She also has the Curse Mark, which again, she has all the benefits but she is not linked to Orochimaru. She can also transform like the Sound Five and Sasuke did in the anime and manga. Anko's Level two gives her a dragon-like appearance with armored scales, wings and claws. Kin, Tayuya & Tenten also have curse marks, but Anko gave them control over them, so just like Anko, the girls have the benefits from the Curse Mark and none of the weaknesses. Anko offered to give Naruto a curse mark, but declined since he has the Nine-tails power and doesn't need it. Besides, the Nine-Tails would just negate the mark anyway.
Kin: The Kin of this story is radically different from her anime / manga counterpart. Instead of bells and senbon, Kin's weapon of choice is a guitar-like weapon that, if anything, is similar to the Nevan weapon from Devil May Cry 3. It is not just a musical instrument, but it can fire off deadly sound waves that can shatter titanium and can also be used as a melee weapon since it can morph into a scythe-like weapon. Orochimaru's experiments on Kin have resulted in her possessing superhuman vocal cords, so she can raise her voice to supersonic levels and release sonic blasts by screaming. Kin's Level Two Curse form gives her an almost vampiric appearance with pale skin, fangs, bat-like wings and red eyes.
Tayuya: The Tayuya of this story is pretty much the same as the temperamental redhead from the manga and anime. Her Level Two form still gives her a demonic appearance and she still summon and control the Doki with her flute. But I expanded upon that. Not only does she control the Doki with her flute, she can also manipulate the dead, much like Inu-Yasha's Kagura did with her fan. Tayuya is more of a necromancess in this story. She is also slightly telepathic, but she doesn't rely on it as much
Tenten: Ability-wise, Tenten in this story is more or less like Wolverine and Witchblade. When experimenting on Tenten, Orochimaru put her through something similar to the Weapon X process. She has regenerative abilities and an indestructible skeleton. Unlike everyone's favorite clawed killing machine, Tenten can have liquid metal seeping out of any pore, kind of like Kidomaru did with his metal-like webbing and thus can coat herself with a living suit of armor like Witchblade. The metal Tenten controls is extremely light and doesn't affect her weight. She can also form weapons with the metal like Kidomaru did.
Naruto: In this story, Naruto meets the Nine-tails when he is very young and the Nine-tails is a she here, acting more like Naruto's mother. Because of all the hatred directed at him, Naruto turns his back on the village. He's not going to be god-like strong here, just a little smarter. Though that's not to say the Nine-tails doesn't grant Naruto some abilities. Mainly, Naruto has pyrokinesis, which obviously lets him generate and control fire. He meets Anko and her sisters when he is about seven years old. Since they share his contempt for the village, Naruto joins Anko and her cause, provided they don't do anything until the Third passes on.
Now, for fans of "Demons of the Leaf" and "A Dark Shade of Red," the next chapters of those respective stories are coming along. It's just taking time.
Once again
